We envision city transformation through Educating, Encouraging, Engaging, and Empowering individuals, families and churches in areas such as: homelessness, transitional & low income housing, health & wellness, family & financial, and spiritual initiatives. As God’s principles for love and life are implemented we believe that life in the city will prosper and HOPE will grow as people live out their dreams.

This is what the LORD Almighty, the God of Israel, says to all those I carried into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 “Build houses and settle down; plant gardens and eat what they produce. Marry and have sons and daughters; find wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage, so that they too may have sons and daughters. Increase in number there; do not decrease.  Also, seek the peace and prosperity of the city to which I have carried you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, because if it prospers, you too will prosper.” (Jeremiah 29:4-7)

By the “church” engaging in the following principles we believe it will create a cultural climate that allows the church to re-represent God's LOVE and LIFE in ANY city. We feel that God was telling Jeremiah how the Jewish people were supposed to live in a foreign land (Babylon) in such a way that would not only help them survive, but have a “blessing impact” in their community and ultimately their city. We believe the “church” (foreigners to this world) can follow the same guidelines today and see the same results.
